As long as it does support data calls that should do the trick, pity it is seems not to be available directly in the UK (anyone know of a UK distributor/supplier). Anyways at least the source code for the drivers is available which always a plus.

[Asterisk-Users] Using 2 PhoneJacks with Asterisk for Data calls.
Hi, I have recently discovered the project along with the PhoneJacks produced by quicknet, they could be the answer to something I have been looking into. I would like to be able to test using a dial-in server possibily also a Windows RAS server, however I only have 1 phone line. I was thinking that I create a setup like that illustrated below to solve the problem:- Ext 1000 Ext 2000 // / // /// /Asterix/// Dialin / / Client /-- / PhoneJack / -- / PBX / -- / PhoneJack / --/ or RAS / /// / /// Server / // / // Has anyone used Asterix in a similair problem or perhaps they can see potential problems. I have tried searching the archives for similair posts but did not come up with much of use. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

Don't do it. You will waste your money. Quicknet hardware is not worth even half of what they are charging.

I recently posted a similair query to comp.linux.hardware relating to setting up a virtual telephone exchange and the result given there my own previous search results appeared to be a lot more expensive than that of the quicknet products (more in the $800+ range).

RE: [Asterisk-Users] Using 2 PhoneJacks with Asterisk for Data calls.
Thanks for the heads-up. Do you know of any alternatives? There is the zaptel hardware from digium.. the TDM400P for FXS ports, X100P for FXO, or the combination of T400P + channel banks. I recently posted a similair query to comp.linux.hardware relating to setting up a virtual telephone exchange and the result given there my own previous search results appeared to be a lot more expensive than that of the quicknet products (more in the $800+ range). Zaptel has the capability to do 'clear-channel' and/or 'data-quality' calls. See 'show application Dial' on the asterisk and have a look at the 'd' and 'c' options that can be passed to Dial. Someone else may be more familiar with how it works on the X100P/TDM400P hardware though as I haven't ever tested it. It was probably designed to work with channel banks, which is going to go over your budget if you are trying to find something cheaper than $800. My main concern is compatibility according to the asterisk docs, the quicknet products are and drivers are also supplied as part of the kernel. AFAIK, Quicknet is the only folks who use the Linux telephony API but even the Quicknet products often have problems with the driver that is distributed in the standard kernel... OpenH323 is about the only thing that is out there that can actually interface with the stuff 100% and Quicknet has a big hand in that project too.

Not after you've wasted the kind of money I did on that junk. I was even stupid enough to pay the extra $30 per card for G.729 and when I couldn't make it work on Linux, they told me it would never work on Linux due to licensing problems. Then they had the balls to tell me they had no facilities to refund the G.729 licensing fee's. Jeremy McNamara Bruce Ferrell wrote: Be nice Jeremy!
